Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an electrode having low contact resistance, and moreover having uniform contact by a method wherein an insulating film at an opening part for the injection of a current is etched leaving slight thickness, and after the remaining insulating film is etched, the surface of an exposed semiconductor substrate is etched slightly, and a metal film is adhered thereon. CONSTITUTION:An insulating film 2 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 1 having a high concentration P type or N type layer on the surface. Then a mask consisting of a photo resist film 3 to provide an opening part 4 for the injection of a current in the insulating film 2 is formed, and etching of the insulating film 2 is performed using the photo resist film thereof as a mask. At this time, etching of the insulating film 2 is performed incompletely to leave the film thin. After then, exfoliation of the photo resist 3 is performed using an oxygen plasma process to generate scarcely a resist remnant in the opening part 4. After the insulating film 2 is removed according to a proper selectively etching liquid not to corrode the semiconductor substrate 1 in succession, the surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 is etched slightly, and after a metal film 5 for ohmic contact is adhered, heat treatment is performed, and an ohmic electrode is formed.

However, the method shown in FIG. 1 has the following drawbacks. In (1-d) Ic, when removing the photoresist 7 with a stripping agent, the cleaning of areas where the liquid tends to stagnate, such as the inside of the opening 4, is intense, and even after etching with the surface treatment liquid, resist residue remains. is present and gold RI for ohmic contact deposited with (1-c)! This leads to an increase in the specific contact resistance between X5 and the surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, and non-uniformity within the contact area. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reduce the increase in the specific contact resistance of the ohmic contact portion and the increase in the contact area within the contact area, which tend to occur when forming an ohmic electrode with a current confinement structure on the surface of a semiconductor substrate as described above. There is an urgent need to provide a method for forming ohmic electrodes that prevent non-uniformity and have low contact resistance and uniform contact.

FIG. 2 shows a method for forming an ohmic electrode based on Ic of the present invention. First, in (2-a), there is a high concentration of P type or n type on the surface.
A cell fi! is formed on the semiconductor substrate 1 having a mold layer by a method such as thermal oxidation or OVD. form 2. In the next step K (2-b), a mask made of a 7-oto-dist film 3 is formed by etching the insulating film 2 to form an opening 4 for current injection by etching. In (2-c), the insulating film 2 is etched using a suitable etching solution using the photoresist film 3 as a mask. However, this method differs from the conventional method shown in FIG. 1 in that the etching of the insulating film 2 is not completed and a thin layer is left. After this, in (2-d), the photoresist is peeled off, but instead of using a conventional method using a liquid peeling agent, the photoresist is peeled off from the opening 4.
Oxygen plasma treatment is used, which produces very little resist residue inside the film. In the conventional method shown in Figure 1, even if oxygen plasma treatment was attempted during the stripping process, it would easily cause damage such as oxidation to the surface of the semiconductor substrate exposed in the opening, and its use was difficult. On the other hand, in the method (2-d) according to the present invention, a thin, absolute #2 film is applied to the opening 4.
Since Fcv4 remains, even if oxygen plasma treatment is performed, no Fcv4 scratches will occur on the surface of the semiconductor substrate 1.

Subsequently, after the photoresist is removed, the insulating film 2 is etched using a suitable selective etching solution that does not etch the semiconductor substrate 1 in step (2e), and the thin layer 982 remaining in the opening 4 is removed. , a suitable surface layer (!I!
The surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 is slightly etched with the liquid. Thereafter, in step (2-f), a metal film 5 for ohmic contact is deposited by vapor deposition or the like and then heat-treated to complete the process of forming the ohmic electrode.
